I currently use water bath to purge my BHO I blast right into parchment paper! Let the parchment sit out in room temp til its dry around 20min or so, I then scrap all my BHO onto one piece of parchment if I blast more then one! I pre heat my vacuum chamber on a electric stove on low! I have my chamber sitting on a thick stainless steal pancake pan! I leave the rubber mat inside the chamber and place parchment paper right on top, I let it muffin and come down then I purge it out slow because I learned the hard way and blasted all my BHO on the side of pot before lol I then repeat the purge once an hr til it looks good to me, I'd like any input to make my shit look better plz a lil note I dont use a thermometer yet so I'm not sure what my temps are throughtout the vacuum purge, but the shit comes out potent and flavorful takes about 4-5 hrs to get it to look like the pics

Welcome to The Farm!.

First off... shit looks good man. Wish i had smell-avision!

now to the finishing

The first problem i think you are experiencing is your temp issue. For me, I usually run my product in the the vac chamber at 115 for up to 36 hours at full vac. I break vac about every 8-12 hours and flip the pattie on the parchment/silicone pad/ PTFE paper. Usually by the end of the third period it is tack-less to the touch at room temp.

The second problem i think you are experiencing is that if the fats & lipids are not removed then you can never achieve "snap" status because there will be far to many fats and lipids. To remove them you need to start with frozen weed and frozen/greatly chilled butane (do not put butane in an indoor freezer, unless you want to die!)
I like to use dry ice pellets & 99.5 % alcohol slurry. Set the cans in the mix as you begin to set up.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL!! The static from a sweater can turn you into a human torch.

This link is one of mine and deals with all kinds of processing of weed in differnt way; it is also very current and it is open to anyone. Source Turbo tinctures-oils & shatter (methanol/alcohol extraction) .

This heating pad come in various sizes and is reliable. I have checked mine with a laser thermometer many, many times and has never been off my more than 1 degree.

That should get you started. If you have any questions all you have to do is post and add @AnselAdams and i will be notified of the post and will get you an answer.

Good Luck & May your shatter, SNAP sorry couldn't help it!

I dbl boil on a plate on parchment paper! I use a torch lighter to flash burn the bubbles as they rise to the top! You can't hold the flame in one place more then a sec cuz it will burn the parchment so its a quick flash burn to pop the bubbles.

Yeah I have parchment in my Pyrex! I blast right into the parchment open blast! I have another Pyrex on low heat on the stove with water in it and dbl boil it like that! Then I extract off of the parchment put into one glob on a new piece of parchment, i then put that on to a kitchen plate and place that onto a pot of water thats low-med heat til its bubbling a lil tje turn heat down to simmer it will liquefy again and I flash burn the bubbles as they rise quickly not to burn through to the parchment doesnt need much to pop the bubbles with the torch lighter.

I sometimes don't even put in chamber, I have the mat and chamber but I find it takes along time to fully purge.

You just purge it out in the water bath only that's crazy. And it don't crackle and pop? My stuff crackles and pops like crazy I purge it too. But I only do the water bath once for 15 to 20 mins at temp 110. Am I messing up somewhere should I go longer?
